I decided that I would paint our TV unit white on the weekend. The first shot is the white-ish colour that it initially was. The second, well that's the new white-white look. Luke thinks I am on the mad side being bothered to paint it when there isn't too much difference in the outcome... He is probably right but it would just have annoyed me until I got it to the exact colour I wanted! Anyone else particular like me and just can't let things go?! Kellie x

Ps. Please take note of the last of my sweet peas! And the beautiful iceberg roses, well they are courtesy of Mum (I am not quite talented enough in the gardening stakes for roses just yet). x

I'm like you. If something irks me, I can't rest until it's rectified. Personally I prefer whiter white, it just seems crisper and fresher. You have done a great job. I wonder if you sprayed or brushed it?

It's a girl thing! I am totally the same way! I HAVE just recently painted a chair 3 times because it just wasn't right. My husband accused me of painting it the same color twice! I now...LOVE it! It's not just the color...but How it looks in the different lighting that affected my painting problems! Hope you have a fantastic week...dj

I agree with you...there are so many shades of white...just go to the paint store and have a look...I wanted to pick a shade for my bathroom..I had soooooooo many to pick from...so white is not white. It was worth the time you took for peace of mind!
